How Do I Click a div dropdown menu using VBA IE automation - vba

Have the following DIV class, where you click on the bottom it will create a drop down menu. In browser, you can click it with mouse, however with IE automation with VBA. I tried the ".click" method and doesn't work.
I also tried the FireEvent with "onclick" "onchange" "onmouseover" and nothing works. Trying to see if there is any other solution
<div id="add12" style="width: 47px; height: 23px; white-space: nowrap;
position: static;"
controltype="DropDown" param="par">
<input name="ct10115" id="ddl" type="hidden" value="E">
<input class="ffb-input" id="input" style="width: 13px;" maxlength="1"
autocomplete="off">
<span class="ffb-arrow ui-button ui-widget ui-state-default ui-corner-Allui-button-text-icon-primary" id="teste2" role="button" ariadisabled="false" style="position:
static;">
<span class="ui-button-icon-primary ui-icon ui-icon-triangle-1-s"
style="left: 0px; top: 0px; margin-top: 0px; position: static;"></span>
<span class="ui-button-text"></span>
</span>
<div class="ffb" id="example11" style="left: 0px; top: 29px; width: 450px; display: none; z- index: 21; opacity: 0.999;">
<div class="content" style="height: auto; max-height: 200px;" scrolltop="0">
<div class="row" id="A" val="A" std_phase_cd="A" std_nm="A_">
<table>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td style="width: 45px;">A </td>
<td>none A </td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</div>
<div class="row" id="B" val="B" std__cd="B" std_nm="1">
<table>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td style="width: 45px;">B </td>
<td>none1 </td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</div>
</div>
<div></div>
</div>
</div>

ok I got it figured out.
So I use the dev tool on browser, and found the event e.g. click, mousedown etc.
then I use IE.dipatchEvent to trigger the click event.

You'll need to add an :nth-child() to the row (<tr>) as well as column (<td>), presuming the rows all have the same pattern of content.
For example:
cy.get('table >tbody >tr:nth-child(1) td:nth-child(1) fa-icon:nth-child(1)')
.should('have.length', 1)
.click()
or .eq() works
cy.get('table tbody')
.find('tr').eq(0)
.find('td').eq(0)
.find('fa-icon').eq(0)
.should('have.length', 1)
.click()

Selenium WebDriver XPath points to second row, but findElements returns first row

and am attempting to get the second row (the one with "Store Number" 4 and "Store Name" 'b'), with the following Groovy code:
'get the initial number of data rows'
String dataRowsSelector = '//table[contains(#id, "data-table")]/tbody/tr'
List<WebElement> dataRows = driver.findElements(By.xpath(dataRowsSelector))
int initialRowCount = dataRows.size()
assertNotEquals(index, 0)
'find the row pointed to by the index'
String rowSelector = String.format('//table[contains(#id, "data-table")]/tbody/tr[%d]', (index + 1))
assertEquals(rowSelector, '//table[contains(#id, "data-table")]/tbody/tr[2]')
WebElement rowToDelete = driver.findElement(By.xpath(rowSelector))
'get the delete button'
String deleteButtonSelector = '//button[./i[contains(concat(" ", #class, " "), " fa-trash-o ")]]'
WebElement deleteButton = rowToDelete.findElement(By.xpath(deleteButtonSelector))
println(rowToDelete.findElement(By.xpath('//td[1]')).getAttribute('innerText'))
assertTrue(rowToDelete.findElement(By.xpath('//td[1]')).getAttribute('innerText').contains('b'))
I run that code, and rowToDelete becomes the first data row instead of the second (I try again with 3 for the index, and it is still the first row), even though the assertion against the target xpath worked. Also, the first <td> for that WebElement contains a and not b. (When I tried with 3 as the index, I get a again, even though I was expecting c.
How do I fix this weird behavior?
The problem was with my XPath itself, apparently. When attempting to select WebElements relative to other WebElements, using XPath, I should put a dot in front of the // to give it the scope.

How we can select item from drop down combo box using value of element in selenium webdriver

I need to know how we can select a value from drop down combo box using value of that item.

I want to know how we can select li item "Aava, Ruth" in selenium webdriver using its value.
Use below XPath
//ul[#class='rcbList']/li[1]
OR
//ul[#class='rcbList']/li[contains(.,'Aava, Ruth')]
You can select it directly by using below code:-
driver.findElement(By.xpath("//ul[#class='rcbList']/li[1]")).click();
Note:- First click on dropbox then use above code
Hope it will help you :)

Not able to click on element with unselectable='on' in chrome using webdriver

There is a drop down with an arrow on the side which opens up a sub menu. I am not able to click on the dropdown in chrome whereas its working in ie.
I tried hover and click and actions build too. But it's not working.

Selenium Webdriver: Read a table completely

Scenerio:In a webpage there are few tables present. I want to read one of the table completely, but the problem is only 10 rows are displayed, for rest i have to scroll down. Actually originally only 10 row are available, when we scroll rest of the filed are rendered.
To solve this i thought i will simulate key down and keep reading, but the problem is even the xpath is not consistent through out so cannot put in a loop too. Xpath for few different cells are:
html/body/div[2]/form/div[1]/div[2]/div/div[2]/div/div[2]/div/div[2]/div/div[2]/div/span/div[1]/div/div/div/div[2]/div/div[2]/table/tbody/tr[1]/td[1]
html/body/div[2]/form/div[1]/div[2]/div/div[2]/div/div[2]/div/div[2]/div/div[2]/div/span/div[1]/div/div/div/div[2]/div/div[2]/table[2]/tbody/tr[3]/td[1]
html/body/div[1]/form/div[1]/div[2]/div/div[2]/div/div[2]/div/div[2]/div/div[2]/div/span/div[1]/div/div/div/div[2]/div/div[2]/table[1]/tbody/tr[10]/td[1]
In what way can i get data in all the cells ?

try to use this approach:
1) actions builder, advanced user API
MoveMouseAction method in particular - Moving the mouse from its current location to another element.
you can get here more info about actions builder
2) also dont forget to use fluent wait until web element is rendered
public WebElement fluentWait(final By locator){
Wait<WebDriver> wait = new FluentWait<WebDriver>(driver)
.withTimeout(30, TimeUnit.SECONDS)
.pollingEvery(5, TimeUnit.SECONDS)
.ignoring(NoSuchElementException.class);
WebElement foo = wait.until(
new Function<WebDriver, WebElement>() {
public WebElement apply(WebDriver driver) {
return driver.findElement(locator);
}
}
);
return foo; } ;
By xpathElem=By.xpath("html/body/div[2]/form/div[1]/div[2]/div/div[2]/div/div[2]/div/div[2]/div/div[2]/div/span/div[1]/div/div/div/div[2]/div/div[2]/table/tbody/tr[1]/td[1]");
//getting data from cells
fluentWait(xpathElem).getText().trim();
hope this somehow helps you ;-)
